Panaeolus cyanescens var “British Virgin Islands; TTBVI” Spore Print

Description

EXOTIC

Panaeolus cyanescens is a species that is wide spread throughout the globe. Spores are dark black and differ visually from cubensis spores; Panaeolus species are a great addition to your spore library to compare to cubensis spores under the microscope. These prints were made from wild prints from the British Virgin Islands in the Caribbean; hence the name Panaeolus cyanescens var “British Virgin Islands; BVI”.
The spore prints were created by TamarindTree and sent to MMM directly- so they are also known as TTBVI. Due to the lack of a veil and being from wild specimens, there is a slight increased chance of contamination but prints are screened before use to reduce contamination presence as much as possible and customers report clean samples!
Panaeolus cyanescens var “British Virgin Islands” may be shortened to BVI or TTBVI.

Prints are about the size of a quarter and fairly dark (especially for an exotic). Spore prints are single prints on wax paper.
Spore prints are sent in a ziplock bag with “Microscopy use only” written on the ziplock.
Spore prints will be labelled with an acronym for the variety or with the full variety name or, if it is a single print, the ziplock may be labelled.
Due to environmental, genetic, and other conditions, the phenotype contained within the spores may be different than the collector’s card image. All varieties, especially mutant ones, are vetted to ensure the correct genetics are being sold.
